Today is North Texas Giving Day

We know you have choices when it comes to who you support on North Texas Giving Day. This year, we invite you to choose Cook Children’s for kids like Gunner. Click here to give now: northtexasgivingday.org/organization/cookchildrens

When Gunner was diagnosed with Pompe disease, Erin, a Cook Children’s Child Life specialist, created an opportunity for his mother, Audra, to fully experience her emotions before sharing the news with her son.

“On the day he was diagnosed, she took him to play Uno so he wasn’t in the room when we were told,” Audra said. “I had to compose myself before we left, so I could explain everything to him.”

Families never receive a bill for visits with our Child Life team. Something as simple as a game of Uno can make an incredible difference for families like Audra and Gunner. Your support helps make that possible. Click here to give now: northtexasgivingday.org/organization/cookchildrens
